He has now much pleasure in intimating that to-day he HAS ENTERED UPC 2? A LONG LEASE of that old, centrally situated, and most popular house, the CITY HOTEL, Which by EXTENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS AND ALTERATIONS, Now in progress, in the carefully selected and choice stock, and the most assiduous attention, he intends to raise to the position the LEADING HOTEL IN CHRISTCHURCH. From the kindness extended to him in the past, E. C. does not fear that he will be forgotten by any of his old friends, or that he will fail to meet the requirements of the public generally. Yet he is anxious to convey an assurance that one and all may rely upon A HEARTY WELCOME AT THE “CITY.” Christchurck June 24,1880.
